Let me know how do you want to proceed. I will be busy working on other systems until December, but when I get back, I'll just make the chages to the wiki. If it's not editable, I'll email a patch to the 9fans list. > 9p.io is a mirror of the former Bell Labs website. > > We're still accepting patches and people can > update their contrib directory. However, the > rest is mostly read-only. It may be worth making it clear *on* 9p.io, then, that the site is a historical monument, and not a place to go for a living system. A link to 9legacy on the front page, flagging it as the place to go if someone wants to use "Plan 9 from Bell Labs", would probably be in order. Personally, I'd prefer to treat the site, and the system itself, as a living thing, and not as a historical preservation project. Treating the main page as "The world stopped when bell labs died" doesn't indicate a healthy ecosystem to me. But that's not my call to make, and since I'm not the one doing the work, I'm not going to argue about that too much. > > Is there anywhere that people would be comfortable > > blessing as a source for building new ISO images, > > to put behind the download link, with the accepted > > patches integrated? > > That's mostly what 9legacy is. It's a collection of patches, but it's unclear from the site that it's the successor to 9p.io. It would be good to clarify that this is where the labs distribution of Plan 9 lives. You can see that confusion in greemngreek's questions.
